[Configobj-develop] ConfigObj.write() produces dangling last line

[Salazar, M. <mar...@sp...>]

I observed the files created by ConfigObj.write() were missing the
newline character on the last line. Sure enough examination of the code
reveals something like:

=3D=3D=3D

Output =3D (expressionReturningANewlineChar).join(out)

.

.

.

Outfile.write(Output)

=3D=3D=3D

which will leave off the final newline. Am I missing something?

Ah.... I *thought* there was code in there which tracked whether the 
original was terminated with a newline and adding one if necessary.

However as I can't see that code I must have been hallucinating. :-)

I guess that's a bug and should be fixed sometime.
